GitHub Actions

Automate your workflowfromideatoproduction

GitHub Actions makes it easy to automate all your software workflows, now with world-class CI/CD. Build, test, and deploy your code right from GitHub. Make code reviews, branch management, and issue triaging work the way you want.

Run a workflowon any GitHub event

Kick off workflows with GitHub events like push, issue creation, or a new release. Combine and configure actions for the services you use, built and maintained by the community.

Whether you want to build a container, deploy a web service, or automate welcoming new users to your open source projects—there's an action for that. Pair GitHub Packages with Actions to simplify package management, including version updates, fast distribution with our global CDN, and dependency resolution, using your existing GITHUB_TOKEN.

Linux, macOS, Windows, ARM, and containers

Hosted runners for every major OS make it easy to build and test all your projects. Run directly on a VM or inside a container. Use your own VMs, in the cloud or on-prem, with self-hosted runners.

Matrix builds

Save time with matrix workflows that simultaneously test across multiple operating systems and versions of your runtime.

Live logs

See your workflow run in realtime with color and emoji. It’s one click to copy a link that highlights a specific line number to share a CI/CD failure.

Built in secret store

Automate your software development practices with workflow files embracing the Git flow by codifying it in your repository.

Multi-container testing

Test your web service and its DB in your workflow by simply adding some docker-compose to your workflow file.

Community-powered workflows

GitHub Actions connects all of your tools to automate every step of your development workflow. Easily deploy to any cloud, create tickets in Jira, or publish a package to npm.

Want to venture off the beaten path? Use the millions of open source libraries available on GitHub to create your own actions. Write them in JavaScript or create a container Action—both can interact with the full GitHub API and any other public API.

What our community is saying

“With GitHub Actions, we get an excellent SaaS-based CI/CD solution that integrates seamlessly into GitHub and will soon allow us to run selected workloads on-premise through self-hosted runners across operating systems.”

Ingo Sauerzapf

Software Development Manager, CI/CD

“CircleCI has been building a CI/CD platform since 2011, and GitHub has been a great partner. GitHub Actions is further validation that CI/CD is critical for the success of every software team. We believe that developers thrive in open, connected ecosystems, and we look forward to working with GitHub to lead the evolution of CI/CD.”

Jim Rose

CEO of CircleCI

“Custom scripts and bespoke systems prevented many of our users from fully realizing the benefits of CI/CD. GitHub Actions gave us a platform to deliver intelligent pipelines with minimal up-front investment and no ongoing maintenance.”

Dan Belcher

mabl Co-Founder

“With the integration of Code References with GitHub Actions, developers can now easily locate feature flags in their code. Internally, we believe using Actions can optimize our CI infrastructure and streamline our build process by parallel testing our clients across Windows, Linux, and OSX.”
